does 2009 heritage softail have abs brakes

The 2009 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Classic (FLSTC) was available with or without ABS (Anti-lock Braking System).

ABS was optional on that model year — not standard.

If you're looking at a specific bike and want to know if it has ABS:

• Look for an ABS light on the instrument panel when you turn the ignition on.
• Inspect the wheels: ABS-equipped models usually have a slotted tone ring (a thin metal ring with holes or slots) near the brake rotor.
• Check the VIN or owner's manual for confirmation.
• Or ask a Harley-Davidson dealer to run the VIN for full specs.

Want help identifying ABS from a photo or VIN? I can help with that too.
